We hire seasoned lawyers. Our lawyers average more than 16 years of experience. With all of our lawyers graduating from top law schools and
with most training at large law firms, each joined AFRCT for a collegial environment that values diversity and pursues the highest quality work
product. What this means for our clients is that our lawyers are experienced, skillful and capable of handling a matter from start to finish. We are not staffed with legions of junior associates facing steep learning curves and heavy billable hour requirements. Our paralegal team is no different, as it averages more than ten years of experience. Our clients, many of whom we have represented for decades, enjoy dealing with our lawyers because experience counts.

We are sensitive to our clients’ desire to control costs. Our investment in a strong technological infrastructure, efficient management, and a comfortable and accessible environment for our clients have also reduced overhead. And our commitment to hiring only experienced lawyers likewise creates cost efficiencies. We pass those savings on to our clients, with billing arrangements typically 40% below those of national firms and 20% below larger regional firms. Unlike most, we do not bill our clients for overhead expenses such as postage, fax, secretarial overtime and phone charges. Our clients appreciate our efforts to control costs because delivering value is critical.

We are results-oriented. The combination of vast experience and a keen understanding of our clients’ desired result allows us to avoid getting caught up in unnecessary minutiae, or personal battles with opposing counsel, that can add cost and aggravation to the process. We foster a collaborative approach with our clients characterized by responsive and open communication that begins with the first meeting and continues throughout our representation. Our passionate and pragmatic advocacy for our clients has forged enduring relationships focused on our clients’ needs and objectives, because results matter.
